WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

Nice beer, great malt and hop flavor.
Screwed up the bottling sugar resulting in very low carbonation.
Needs dry hopping (another rookie error) next time.

Actual FG = 1.015
